As to cancer - the studies contradict one another. It might cause cancer. It might not. It might protect against cancer. There are studies that show all three results. It is hard to do thorough, controlled studies on the long-term effects of illegal substances.

I am listening to other people, I am only calling the claim that pot has never harmed a single person in human history bullshit. Once again, yes its safer then alcohol or tobacco, but stop with the claims that it has not harmed anyone ever.

Of course not. I don't think anyone can make absolute claims for 'all of human history' in the literal sense. How about 'documented medical history?'

When there is an auto accident caused because someone was talking on a cell phone, do you claim cell phones cause death? Because they dont, the persons choice to drive while talking on a phone does. Its the same while driving impaired, regardless of the source of impairment. Its not the drug that causes the fatality, its the choice to drive under its influence. When someone drives drunk and then crashes their car and dies, they didnt die from alcohol poisoning they died from trauma directly related to the accident. The alcohol likely helped cause the accident but it is not the cause of death.

I am not directing this at brettmc, this is for clarification for others involved in this discussion. I dont believe brettmc is capable of understanding the logic here, so brettmc, feel free to ignore it, as its clearly beyond your capacity to understand.

Christ, you're obtuse.

I don't think you know what that word means as you clearly are not using it correctly here.

I wouldn't put much stock in the vitriol. Folks blow off a little steam from time to time on the ol' 'net. I bet dollars to donuts that if (and often when) folks actually meet in real life, they're quite nice to each other. I know that's the end result for me at the regular OO gaming events that some of us in the Chicago area throw twice a year.

No, I'm confident I got it 100% correct.

Of course you are, most trolls like you are very confident in their trolling behaviors.

Did someone actually claim this? I haven't read the whole thread and I'm too lazy to go back and check so it is possible but it is Brett so if I were a betting man I would put my money on no one having said that.

How am I an insulting piece of trash troll by providing a definition? All I have done time and time again is provide factual and personal information. I have not called you any names, like trash or idiot, something you have resorted to repeatedly. I did state you were being obtuse about the usage of the word obtuse but that was not an insult. By the very definition of obtuse, you were in fact being obtuse. Perhaps its because you dont like letting facts get in the way of your perception of reality? You sir, are the poster child for someone who needs to use recreational drugs. I dont know how you can stand to live in your bitter, angry, uninformed existence, with out some form of escape.

And there you go being an insulting troll again, in a post where you claim you aren't doing any such thing.

Oh I most certainly did not claim that my last comments were not insulting. I claimed my previous comments were not. But after you have repeatedly avoided answering any questions of substance with anything but insulting denigration, I figured the only thing you would possibly understand was a reply in kind. I actually did it as a favor to you because clearly your life must be so bereft of anything meaningful, that insulting random people on the internet must be your only real form of entertainment, and with the 'Fool bowing out, I figured I would extend you the opportunity to have a bit more fun at my expense. Youre welcome!

I posted multiple links supporting my position, you just hand waved them away for reasons that make no sense.

Well, yeah, shet and others have made efforts with real and sincere posts, but then you come skating in and just clear the puck. I mean, you managed to get it all the way back to whether marijuana has ever caused direct or indirect harm to anyone since the dawn of man, or maybe just recorded medical history. That's icing, dude.
